Overview

Jack can only choose one future...2150 - time travel has accelerated climate change and set humanity on the brink of destruction. As a Person of Mixed Era Origin with the ability to recall parallel versions of time, British historian, Jack Elliot, seems the perfect candidate to travel to the past and prevent the advent of time travel. The catch? Success means Jack will cease to exist. Critically injured when he arrives in the past, Jack's life is saved by Maddie, a second-generation immigrant and resistance fighter, who mistakenly believes he's connected to the disappearance of her sister, Suraya. Jack's denial soon unravels with the discovery that Suraya can lead him to his father - the man who robbed him of his mother - and that they are all searching for the inventor of time technology. What begins as a fragile alliance soon puts their feelings and their missions to the test. Jack's won't be the only life affected by his sacrifice, but does he have the right to decide who should live and who should die - and will it be worth it for the futures he and Maddie hope to create?

Reviews

In this impressive first novel, Amy Orrell creates a credible theory and practice for time travel where various factions try to manipulate time for their own benefit, and the fate of the human race. Clever and absorbing. - Mike Ashley, Hugo nominated author and editor, and winner of the Pilgrim Award for lifetime achievement in science fiction scholarship

Author Information

Amy grew up in a family of artists and writers where discussions about dragons and leprechauns flowed on from debates on the existence of extraterrestrial life or the probability of time travel. Painting was Amy's first artistic calling - her artwork focused on narrative art - but the complexity of the stories she wanted to tell demanded something more, and naturally led her to writing. Amy likes to write thought-provoking science fiction and fantasy, delving into her characters' emotional lives whilst delivering fast paced thrills, twists, and turns. She lives in Norwich, in the East of England (which contrary to popular opinion, is not flat) with her husband, two children and writer's support cat.
